Thanks to everyone for the replies. We ordered a LT2 Corvette Z-51 White/black yesterday. Now the 6 to 8 weeks of anticipation. Hopefully we will get a late winter in Utah so we can enjoy some good mountain rides before the snow flys.

When time comes to get the Z06, I more than likely will get back into a Vert as the wide rear fenders add some of the sexiness back in.
I agree. Wanted a vert but want the lines more.

Congrats on your decision, as a C7 vert owner, I guarantee that you will not regret it once you receive your new vert and push the top down bottom!
Now the hard part is waiting for it to arrive.

I took a C7 Vert for a test drive last week, with the top up and the top down. All I can say is fell in love with it and ordered one this past week.
They are quiet, easy up and down, no latches, etc. look great with the top up or down.
Yes you lose a bit of space but to me well worth it.
